Topic: Romney did not want to anyhow (Read 1134 times)

Romney's son Tagg reported today that, his dad did not want to be president anyhow. He just did it because Ann, his wife and Tagg, his son, wanted him to. He really wished anyone else ould have done it.

That is such a comfort to know this fraud had a possibility of being in the White House soon.

Romney's son Tagg reported today that, his dad did not want to be president anyhow. He just did it because Ann, his wife and Tagg, his son, wanted him to. He really wished anyone else ould have done it.

That's what Tagg Romney, Mitt's oldest son, told the Boston Globe for its big post-mortem on his father's failed presidential bid published on Sunday.

“He wanted to be president less than anyone I’ve met in my life," Tagg Romney told the paper. "He had no desire to ... run. If he could have found someone else to take his place ... he would have been ecstatic to step aside.

"He is a very private person who loves his family deeply and wants to be with them," Tagg continued. "He has deep faith in God and he loves his country, but he doesn’t love the attention.”

Romney's reluctance to become commander in chief has been hinted at by his sons before. Before their father sought the 2012 GOP nomination, several said they tried to convince him not to run.

"I tried to convince him not to," Matt Romney told Conan O'Brien in June. "I think there were a few of us that tried that. I just felt for us as a family, this isn't the best thing. But ... for the country, we think it's the right thing."

There are always excuses to why he lost. Now it's, "He just didn't put his best effort in 'cause he didn't want to do it." And, let's say that's true: how does that spin a positive in his direction? I don't see it. Granted, my paraphrase doesn't stipulate that from the article, but it seems implied.
